It's definitely all a matter of personal preference. I really prefer the stealth approach, while others might prefer something with a little bit more of an intimidation factor.

Tim,
The obligatory "What wheels are those"? I love those. Did you have to roll the fenders for those?

From Z - the "less subtle approach":

you gotta love it. The hard part would only be living up to it...

LOL, that last one actually looks cool in an over the top sort of way.

You might as well just print "750HP" on the side.

LOL...

Here is a more serious effort.

This is the Porscha font in charcoal gray color - as requested.

The word "supercharged" gets a little long, its a very wide font - see the rear of your 928 for an example) and if you stretch it or compress it - well, then it isn't the right Porscha font anymore.

What do you think of these? If we could get some agreement, I'd have them made up...

I like it, but I prefer to let people find out about it the hard way. Stealth mode for me-if a red 928 with a strange whine under the hood, loud exhaust, and huge wheels and tires can be stealth.

I like the new tag, Cap'n. I also like your willingness to oblige.

It is amazing how much groceries the 928 can fit. My usualtrip is about 12 bags.
The SC just gets them home faster before the ice cream melts.

I might like one of those in red as red is the "accent" color on my otherwise "schwartz" shark. You are getting close Carl.....I like the font and the placement. Sell me two in guards red.....

I am beyond stealth now......between the iron lung whine and modular X and rmb exhaust thunder, let alone the steam roller sneakers......but mostly what gives me away is the the evil **** eating grin on my face......

Carl, how about a translucent silver/grey? That way it would be a little lighter on darker cars and a little darker on lighter cars. The one color fits all stealth sticker. Also, the type in your pics looks a little small. I think Tony's pics look better but it could be even a little larger.
